Thanks all for the responses. ^

I ended up booking a room for the night before, just to ensure early morning check-in won't be a problem. Last thing I want to do is arrive and get refused entry after travel.

Sounds like leaving late in the day shouldn't be an issue -- I'll remember to remind them of my diamond status (that generally helps) and that Starwood gives you 4 p.m. without question


Sounds like they are worth asking for!
